All user reviews of 5/5 for the Boss CH-1 Super Chorus

I think everyone here knows, analog chorus with boss.

UTILIZATION

Very simple configuration. You plug the power supply (or insert the battery) and after it connects the input to the Send entry its effects loop and Output Return to entry (if you have an effects loop on the amp well on ...) and how it does not alter the sound of the guitar.

Otherwise four knobs to turn. Even without knowing exactly how this works and its effect just take a little time to play with these buttons to understand the effect of each and quickly find a sound that suits us. So use very simple, no-brainer!

SOUND QUALITY

So then it depends on what you are looking for.

To me that wanted a chorus to soften and deepen my sound is just perfect. The effect is not too strong and can be dosed accurately to achieve the desired sound. The sound quality is top, it's a great chorus that does not pay in excess.

For those looking for a strong and this chorus, I think you can go your way. Of course putting all the knobs to bottom you can get a psyche or out of the planet Mars sin, but for me it is not the chosen field boss CH1. For this there are other more typical chorus such as Electro Harmonix in my opinion.

This boss is just perfect for those who want a beautiful chorus to refine their sound. Sometimes I do not know if the pedal is on or off, which is not a criticism. A fact is not necessarily there to break your ears or too far. Once you get used to playing with CH1, difficult to pass especially for clean sounds that become deeper, more striking, but not excessively.

OVERALL OPINION

I almost always use now and I do spend more.
I have not tried any other model before because I knew I ovulais it and I had a great secondhand: € 50 purchased in almost new condition, it was a gift! In addition to reliability Boss is present.

What I like most is the sound quality and the presence of this effect: as I said it is quiet but but actually helps to bring more to his sound. We do not get tired!

Value for money: $ 50 secondhand do not hesitate! After nine to $ 80 on the internet it is still a good value.
Very good value in this product range. I remake that choice without hesitation.

I put 9 because those sui want a strong and distinctive product chorus will not match.

It is an analog chorus everything easier, with bonus 2 outputs for a stereo effect.
Obviously this is the boss, it's built like a tank so no worries, mine was in great condition, no pet, no! I was pretty darn happy with my purchase.

UTILIZATION

While there, very very easy to find your sound (sonson!).
A button for the volume effect, ie its presence in the final sound.
An EQ, this is the classic pedal throughout.
And most importantly of course, Depth and Rate controls which the amplitude and phase of the signal added, ie, the speed of the effect (Rate) and how the second signal will detune if I m ' say so.

SOUND QUALITY

As stated above I am very satisfied! The sound is just excellent, I am not of those who imagine a pedal will do miracles with your start-up sound, I usually play straight into the amp, the CH1 offers a discreet and very significant effect smelling the little wing.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost a year, I've had a few multi-effects but I've never really been conquered by such effects, I had the opportunity to try a Voodoo Lab, but CH1 remained my favorite.

+ Price.
+ The quality of the effect.
+ Respect for the original sound.

- Nothing for the moment, I can say that it is not as stunning effect, but I prefer my respect her instead of color to death, and then for the price, it's just very good!

Conventional analog chorus pedals, four of rglages knobs: level, eq, rate, depth
Stereo and Mono output.

UTILIZATION

Use trs simple, we can find happiness. The PDAL is the Boss, it's solid ...

SOUND QUALITY

The Chorus pedals dlivr this is excellent, with good rhythm are trs and makes a clearer sound, solo, I love this sonoritsdlivres pedals. Question sound, we like it or not, I recommend you test it, so no conventional chorus excs while discrtion, even pushing the knobs on the bottom Chorus is reasonable to affirm a sound tural and e expressing personality.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year and I am fully satisfied, it is less complte the EC-5 but won the bet in a varieties of personal Chorus trs, it's about go t, it must be tested before purchase. For me it is a powerful PDAL trs. If I had to make another choice, I would perhaps be more than the Boss CE-5 is a chorus pedals offer more versatility. She has a real personality so I care and I am highly satisfied. To you to try!

Already said

UTILIZATION

We tune the ptits buttons and it works!
Should be tested a bit, before putting a little chance, you have to find what are the knobs, what is done very quickly.

SOUND QUALITY

It's the heavy.
Very good chorus, it colors the sound énormment, a grain hot, I love.
After it is also possible to color much less depending on the settings, but for hot amateur chorus, you'll find your happiness!
Again boss fit to both amplifier transistor as lamps, the two make a great sound.

OVERALL OPINION

Excellent!
Nothing else to say, this choice I would do a thousand times!

Analog chorus pedal. 4 knobs: Level / Eq / Rate and Depht.
Runs on AC or 9V battery 9V/100ma.
Entered a two-out which allows you to connect two amps!
Solid metal casing instead. Nothing to say about the feature.

UTILIZATION

Easy to program if you're not too stupid. Ausun noise when alum unlike some effects that make "poc" or "tic". Ease of use what.
I got so used with respect to the manual I do not know because I did not have to. Otherwise very easy to program buttons are not 25000! ^ ^

SOUND QUALITY

Then it is a matter of taste (as often)! It is with Boss so it is the quality! Personal I love the sound! The chorus is very light even pushed the button to the maximum level. The sound is soft, the eq can change the active egualisation when the effect and it's a good point. This is precisely what I find! For those looking for a pedal or Bourin chorus is powerful and intense ultra go your way! but if you find a warm and lightweight chorus I recommend it.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been almost a year I use this pedal.
I found this pedal NO default, even used! No noise when it is turned, a sound warm and not too powerful (rather light) allows in addition to plug into two amps! I pay € 45 for those of OCCAZ is the new price is at around 80 €. I had a aissayer modeel, a behringer that sounded frankly blah (its too heavy) but the price was aure thing! not even € 30!
For sound I repeat it is very good but it is a matter of taste after a judge you!

Chorus pedal with four knobs.

Possibility of buying power mains adapter 9V

A red LED that lights when the pedal Inrush (practical for the stage). The footswitch flat, as always with Boss, is also practical: hard to miss! No noise when it is switched on.

one small default but is still present in the boss, it's fragility. we must take care is not the kind of pedal on which to fall back on foot joint top after a jump ... but hey, just be careful, it's true that I am used to pedal to metal enclosures, indestructible.

UTILIZATION

The configuration is fairly instinctive, just search a little early and we understand pretty quickly how it works

on the other hand do not undertake to change the settings on stage! the knobs are tiny and can not see anything. So it is better to provide a setting that will fit everything you play

it can be used fairly diversified, clear sound with distortion to produce very different effects

SOUND QUALITY

The variety of effects that can be optenir is quite large. overall the chorus is light enough, whatever pushing it you can get good sound spaces!

combined with a good reverb (the amp) it makes really good, as its clear that saturated. it gives a nice sound strange in his clear, and a large deep well and full of sustain for solos with distortion

nothing to say it does its job. it is possible to find happiness by fiddling the knobs or by combining it with other pedals

OVERALL OPINION

Very positive overall opinion

I use it for several years and I never thought about selling it. this is not the pedal of the century but it does what is expected of them

This is an analog chorus I think, and you can plug in stereo which is a plus. it's basic, simple, and is especially effective

UTILIZATION

The manual is simple like the pedal, making it a great product

SOUND QUALITY

And his heart is the music. and the chorus ch-1 is a very good chorus. Be fast, slow, or a very deep and profound that can be crystalline as they like. I think it is fairly typed vintage, and personally I love to try it anyway so before. in distortion is doing very well but is more difficult to manage

OVERALL OPINION

I love everything about this, 1.What is simple and to the point 2. its a very typical vintage that I loves 3. its sound!
and what I hate is the battery change and it is boss and it sucks

Everything has already been said on this point, so I will not dwell on the subject.

UTILIZATION

Super simple setup, 4 knobs (level, EQ, rate, depth) we easily find the sound you want, if indeed we are looking a slight effect.
Not need the manual ...

SOUND QUALITY

I fell in love with the chorus which is super soft and very light even pushed in his last retranchements.De more it distorts absolutely not the sound of your guitar.
I use it mainly with a copy of a Start or Ibanez AG75 and Marshall VS100 see a Torque 30W.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since early 2008 after strong hesitate with the electro harmonix small clone is also very good but the most extreme sounds I liked least.
Excellent quality / price ratio because it is the chorus I was looking for, new pedal paid € 66 in Paris.
This choice I would do without hesitation.

Boss analog Chora.

RAS, Boss, very sturdy!

UTILIZATION

Super simple settings, at the same time, it's a chorus ...

SOUND QUALITY

The modulations are nice, at least for what I seek is to say a hint of chorus, it is quite sufficient.

I did not need more because I search only a slight modulation effect. No need to type in MXR gifts etc. ...

loop on my Rockerverb MKII, it fulfills its role.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it 3 years, I do not change, it suits me perfectly, I do not need more.

it's sturdy, cheap, therefore, perfect.

Chorus pedal, rather serves to color the sound rather than pushing up flanger

Digital technology it seems, it can be released in stereo jack inputs via 2

UTILIZATION

made for simple setup! no need to look 10 years to get decent sound! put everything in halves and adjust afterwards!

Yes there is a manual but I did not read ^ ^ but the effect editing is simple

SOUND QUALITY

+ As I say above, this is a pedal to color the sound! ! impec for ballads with a sound on its quality or addition on with my mesa boogie distortion! and yes in the 80 ', the secret group was to mix hard rock distortion and chorus to have a well-typed! I use the same trick in my group hardcore 80 'STEEL RANGERS http://www.myspace.com/steelrangers ... and a great guitarist named Zakk Wylde is the same!
Zakkos always used to brief the BOSS brand ... and these recent contract with MXR make me laugh! in short, a nice foot shot from the best brand of effect! it is very robust and gives a nice sound

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since the late 90 '! but I sold the first in 2003 because I did thrash death metal! back with a hard rock band 80 'in 2008 I immediately re-purchased this pedal worship which for me is better than another chorus pedal of the same brand!
I redeem of ACCase on the "right corner" or through advertisements to be ready for Audiofanzine € 40 in mint condition!
Super report qualitée money! I would do this choice

This is a very popular pedal for some reason. It's an analog chorus pedal, one of Boss's trademark pedals. Since its an older pedal, it is not able to be edited through a computer, is not MIDI ready, and it isn't rackable. It is simply a standard guitar pedal with the 1/4" input and output.

UTILIZATION

The effects editing is pretty easy overall. There are four knobs. One of the knobs controls the effect level, which is pretty obvious. The EQ knob actually affects the tonality of the effect. This is useful because there have been many times that the Chorus effect has frustrated me by drastically altering the intonation of the chords that I was playing. The rate knob controls the rate at which the filter passes through the signal, and the depth knob controls the magnitude of the effect.

SOUND QUALITY

I wasn't really a huge fan of the chorus effect before I tried this pedal. I always was frustrated that I couldn't make the effect subtle enough. That's why once I tried this, I really enjoyed it. The EQ knob makes it easy to really hide the effect. It sounds good without screaming "Hey, this is a chorus pedal!". Another reason I liked it was that cranking every knob up all the way takes it just farther than I'd ever be willing to go with this effect. Every pedal I know takes the effect into the ridiculous territory, even when only at 2 o'clock on each knob. It actually has allowed me to emulate a tone I've been pursuing for years, that of Andy Summers of The Police. Since he's possibly the only guitarist I've ever loved who applied liberal amounts of chorus to his tone, getting something that sounds sort of like him is really something special. I've yet to find a reasonably affordable pedal that sounds anywhere near as good as this.

OVERALL OPINION

I like the fact this is one of the better choruses I've found in pedal form, and it's usually less than $100. That's about the minimum you'll spend on GREAT pedals, and this is one of them. The sound is perfect for this day and age, when really obvious and obnoxious chorus effects have gone out of style, but the effect is still somewhat necessary. The overall sound is great, and doesn't really get in the way of your guitar's natural tone. I've played countless chorus pedals and hated many of them. I was really surprised, as Boss has somewhat of a hit-or-miss reputation with me. Recommended to anyone looking for a SUBTLE chorus.

The Boss CH-1 Super Chorus pedal is an analog guitar pedal. It has a 1/4 inch input and 1/4 inch outputs. It is not a rackable effect as it is a stomp box. It can be powered with a nine volt battery or by a nine volt power supply.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration and set up of the CH-1 is as easy as it gets when it comes to controlling and using pedals of this kind. It has four knobs - one for effect level, one for EQ (tone), one for rate, and one for depth. It is easy to get a good sound out of each and is pretty versatile overall. I don't have a manual for this but it is as easy as any pedal I have used and most should be able to figure it out pretty quickly.

SOUND QUALITY

The chorus effect on the CH-1 is really clean and vibrant overall. You can get a subtle chorus sound or get a sound similar to a leslie cabinet. It is easy to get a wide array of sounds from this, all of which have a great quality to them. I only use this pedal with guitar but it would probably work well with keyboards and any other electronic instruments you'd like to plug this into. Using this subtlety with a Boss DS-1 distortion pedal and a little delay can give you a really awesome tone. This pedal has the capability to deliver a quick and easy high quality chorus sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using the Boss Super Chorus CH-1 for about three or four years. I usually use it with a Fender Stratocaster or Telecaster and a '76 Fender Twin Reverb. While I don't use chorus all the time, this gives me the sound I need when I'm looking to use it. Its ease of use makes it a breeze to get a good sound out of it without any hassle. Boss is known for making reliable products with a great design and stability and the price makes it viable for anyone to obtain this if they are in need of chorus. While I would also recommend checking out a few of the other chorus pedals on the market to see where your personal preference lies, the CH-1 is definitely worthy of a look when it comes to guitar chorus pedals.

Boss is an admirable company because they actually do some very difficult things. They make relatively sturdy gear at relatively affordable prices. Their higher end gear is even better in this way. And looking at the BOSS SUPER CHORUS CH-1 analog pedal, one of their more affordable units, it's easy to see. Featuring the usual 1/4 inch in and two 1/4 outs (one is mono), this foot pedal probably makes it pretty high up the professional food chain. It's called SUPER Chorus because of it's unique, shimmering tone, almost like a lower and wider wave pattern than some of the first REALLY chintzy pedals. It's thicker midrange allows the player to get into some seriously different sounds.

UTILIZATION

Chorus in general is best used in the 'chain', in my opinion, AFTER things like wah and distortion and of course compression. Putting it near the end keeps the impact hot for things like tube drive or distortion, so I place is toward the end. This is a great first pedal and you may find it's your last for a while as the diversity of sound in its spectrum is surprisingly wide. Please note that sometimes the powering of chorus pedals is tricky; make sure you either use 9-volt battery or get a well-shielded chain for your pedalboard.

SOUND QUALITY

The most important aspect -- the tone -- is where this affordable pedal shines. Understanding what chorus does: imagine your tone coming down toward your amplifier and suddenly amazingly quick snippets of the tone were totally removed, like half a second's worth. Then imagine this 'ribbon of tone' moving as slowly or quickly as you'd like, causing at fast speed a 'shimmering' and at slow speed a rambling 'warble'. To the ear (and mixed in with the band) it sounds so shimmery and washy it almost could be two guitars. That's why chorus is excellent in one guitar band's arsenal: it's a go-to for me almost anytime I'm playing rhythm. I don't solo w/ chorus pedal, you may like to. Now the chorus is most effective at a quicker "rate" (thus the rate knob), the output level has to be above 12 o'clock due to a slight deflating in tone from the pedal and there's also a 'depth' which sounds exactly like that. All the while, it's "super" chorus. See, it says so right there on the pedal, mate. It's not just chorus. It's super chorus.

OVERALL OPINION

Ultimately I've tried other analog chorus pedals and have returned, oddly, to this one. For any kind of clean channel strummin', pickin' or cluckin', it just totally brightens up the tone (try it low rate). Or use it with drive and a high depth and jam some Smashing Pumpkin chords. It really is one of the pedals Boss got right, whereas other of their comparable low-end stuff (distortion, phase. etc) doesn't sound it.
